If changing enrolment status, (eg dual reg pupils) do you create a new enrolment status, or edit the existing. I can’t find any info on this. On Sims we would edit the existing status and it would leave a trail of what changes there had been. If I make a change on enrolment on Bromcom it deletes previous attendance (dual reg sub). If I add a new, it appears to LA that we have off rolled, then on rolled the same pupil.
Hi Deborah
On Bromcom, the best practice is to enter an End Date on the existing Enrolment Status and then start a New Enrolment Status from the next day so they are completely separate. This way, when you look at the Student’s Record, you will see exactly when and where they changed Status as it will be clearly displayed on separate lines.
Kind regards,

If I do this, the Local Authority seem to think we have off rolled and on rolled again, when we haven’t? Can you please update a guide/ manual with this information I need to follow to change an enrolment status, so I can use this as evidence incase the LA query this further with me. I can’t find any guides with this information in, and it’s not very clear, especially as Alternative Provision is to be recorded separately for Spring census 2022. It would be really helpful. Thanks.
Hi Deborah
To discuss further, could you please Contact our Helpdesk.
As long as the Student has a single, continuous School Record that encompasses all of their time at the School including changes to their Enrolment Status’, the Student should not appear off roll or look as though they have been off rolled.
I will look into creating a guide that outlines this.
Kind regards,
